Richard confronts Laurie about a negative article on tech blog Code/Rag Laurie agrees that he should speak with its author, C.J. Erlich drafts a partnership agreement for Bachmanity, which gives him control of Big Head's assets while retaining his Pied Piper shares.

She fires Jack for undermining her and leaves the CEO position open, giving the team approval to work on the platform. However, by setting a price point on middle-out compression, Belson valued Pied Piper's platform well above the Maleant deal, and the team gain Laurie's backing. Belson later phones Richard, gloating that he acquired Endframe's middle-out compression platform for $250 million. Laurie backs Jack's deal as the platform does not have proven value, but Monica votes against the deal and delays it. In a board meeting on Maleant's box deal, Monica notices that it includes exclusive rights which would prevent launching the platform for five years. Erlich talks Big Head into a partnership. Meanwhile, Erlich searches for a new incubator prospect and discovers that Big Head has a nine-bedroom mansion where he hosts tenants for a share of their startups. However, the team are unable to deliver a lesser product and their box exceeds all competitors. The team agrees to create a basic functioning box, after which they can create the platform. Jack threatens to fire the team for developing the platform, but needs them to deliver a prototype box to Maleant. However, upon entering their office space the next morning, Richard trips, and incriminating documents which he had meant to shred are spread all over the floor and brought to Jack's attention. Jared refers to Meinertzhagen's Haversack, cautioning everyone to act inconspicuously, and to destroy all traces of their conspiracy. Gilfoyle reports this to Pied Piper and they decide on a Skunkworks project: to secretly pursue the original vision for Pied Piper alongside working on the box appliance, seemingly complying with Jack's order.

In one of his job interviews, Gilfoyle learns that Endframe has hired two of the coders from Hooli, who cracked Richard's middle-out algorithm.
